Abstract: An image sensor includes a first pixel row and a second pixel row, each of the first and second pixel rows including pixels arranged in a first direction, the first and second pixel rows being adjacent to each other in a second direction crossing the first direction. The image sensor further includes device isolation patterns disposed between the first and second pixel rows and spaced apart from each other in the first direction, and supporting patterns disposed between the first and second pixel rows and interposed between the device isolation patterns. Each of the supporting patterns is connected to corresponding ones of the pixels.
